I think the denominators of them are different. The first wording is “(medicine—placebo) / (medicine—no treatment) = 0.65”, whereas the second wording is “(placebo—no treatment) / (no treatment) = 1.35″.
I am still a bit confused. I would read the first as “(treatment-chemical)/treatment = 0.35” and I guess the overall point was. I don’t think the case of secretly injecting peope with chemical was ever referred to or is it a typical experimental setting.
